Dems today mentioned the word “measles” 25 times.

They mentioned diabetes, heart disease and obesity ZERO times.

500 Americans per year died of measles - before the invention of a vaccine.

220 million Americans are suffering chronic disease.

Who cares about children’s health?

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

I am thrilled to announce Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as The United States Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). For too long, Americans have been crushed by the industrial food complex and drug companies who have engaged in deception, misinformation, and disinformation when it comes to Public Health. The Safety and Health of all Americans is the most important role of any Administration, and HHS will play a big role in helping ensure that everybody will be protected from harmful chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, and food additives that have contributed to the overwhelming Health Crisis in this Country. Mr. Kennedy will restore these Agencies to the traditions of Gold Standard Scientific Research, and beacons of Transparency, to end the Chronic Disease epidemic, and to Make America Great and Healthy Again!

One of the most important skills I see in successful (and good) people is to constantly reevaluate assumptions. They make predictions based on various inputs, some of them unknown, and reevaluate based on what they got right and wrong. They trust people not because they're always right--no one is--but because if you're constantly seeking the truth it's easy to identify those who are doing the same.

If you were confident that Donald J. Trump was going to lose, maybe you should question what else you "know" about him. Maybe the people who misled you about his electoral chances have misled you about other things.

In the words of Cormac McCarthy, "If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?"

[Glenn Beck @glennbeck]

If you voted for Kamala Harris and can't understand how over half the country supports Donald Trump, please hear this. We aren't who the legacy media says we are.

We don't want to end "democracy." We want to return power to the PEOPLE from the administrative state.

We don't want a president who will control our lives and declare what we must believe, eat, drive, and teach our children. We want one who will DEREGULATE and let us live without the government constantly breathing down our necks.

We don't want to "abandon science." We support ACTUAL science, grounded in common sense and reason.

We know racism exists. But we don't believe people are BORN racist and that the only way to defeat racism is with more racism.

We believe in the American Spirit - that WE determine our own destinies, no matter race, religion, or class.

Our Founders knew that government left unchecked would accumulate power at the expense of the individual. That's the road we've been on for over 100 years, since the early Progressives convinced America that man cannot rule himself, that we need overseers, elites, and "experts" to tell us what to do.

I voted for the man who promised to empower the people and restrict the government, to let us rule ourselves again. That's what made America exceptional. That's what we want to make "Great Again."

NEW: Closing Trump ad released featuring Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr., Nicole Shanahan, JD Vance, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Elon Musk.

Chills. Worth every second of your time.

Gabbard: This election really isn't about the left versus the right. It's about we, the people, choosing our government and the choice between freedom versus tyranny.

RFK: Nobody has a chronic disease burden like we have. Why are we allowing this to happen to our children? Ultimately, the only thing that will save our country is if we choose to love our kids more than we hate each other.

Shanahan: What is going on here is deeper than politics. It is deeply spiritual. We are being called to rise above the hatred and the fear and the evil.

JD Vance: We need to remember above and beyond that we must love our neighbors, that we must treat other people as we hope to be treated.

Ramaswamy: You wanna be a rebel? You wanna be a hippie? You wanna stick it to the man? Show up on your college campus and try calling yourself a conservative.

Musk: America is gonna reach heights that it has never seen before. The future is gonna be amazing!

The Book of Mormon is not primarily a historical record that looks to the past. Rather, this volume of scripture looks to the future and contains important principles, warnings, and lessons intended for the circumstances and challenges of our day. Hence, the Book of Mormon is a book about our future and the times in which we do now and will yet live.
Ancient voices from the dust plead with us today to learn this everlasting lesson: prosperity, possessions, and ease constitute a potent mixture that can lead even the righteous to drink the spiritual poison of pride.
We can follow the example of the Lamanites in the Book of Helaman who turned to God and were brought to a knowledge of the truth by believing the teachings in the holy scriptures and of prophets, exercising faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, repenting of their sins, and experiencing a mighty change of heart.
If we are not faithful and obedient, we can transform the God-given blessing of prosperity into a prideful curse that diverts and distracts us from eternal truths and vital spiritual priorities. We always must be on guard against a pride-induced and exaggerated sense of self-importance, a misguided evaluation of our own self-sufficiency, and seeking self instead of serving others.
As we study and ponder the Book of Mormon, we will be blessed with eyes to see, ears to hear, minds to comprehend, and hearts to understand the lessons we should learn to “beware of pride, lest [we should] enter into temptation” (Doctrine and Covenants 23:1).
As we walk in the meekness of the Lord’s Spirit, we will avoid and overcome pride and have peace in Him.

I regularly see people ask totally uninformed or nonbelievable people questions and get answers that they believe. This is often worse than having no answers at all. Don't make that mistake.

Quiz: Which MAGA right-winger penned the following quote?

“We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.”

Just kidding. That was President John F. Kennedy

I've spent 40 years suing our government agencies. I understand the perverse incentives that put agency capture on steroids. I know how the system is supposed to work to protect the public interest and I will fix it. 🇺🇸

You believe in Christ, but do you believe Him? The Atonement of Jesus Christ is for you. It applies to you.

[Nicole Shanahan @NicoleShanahan]

Our farmers are on their knees right now. Harris’s accusation of price gouging is wildly misleading and needs to be called out—it completely ignores the serious economic challenges they’re facing. I’ve been trying to communicate this to leaders within the Democratic Party for years, but no one has been willing to listen. President Trump at least is showing a willingness to understand and address the real issues affecting Americans. He’s surrounding himself with people who can help reduce food prices by stimulating the farm economy the right way (I’d like to suggest @RepThomasMassie for USDA).

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr @RobertKennedyJr]

What "MAGA" really means

The phrase has troubled liberals who think it is a call for a return to an America before civil rights, gay rights, and women's rights. But I have a more generous interpretation, one that is truer to my experience of Donald Trump as he is today. "Make America Great Again" recalls a nation brimming with vitality, with a can-do spirit, with hope and a belief in itself. It was an America that was beginning to confront its darker shadows, could acknowledge the injustice in its past and present, yet at the same time could celebrate its successes. It was a nation of broad prosperity, the world's most vibrant middle class, and a idealistic belief (though not consistently applied) in freedom, justice, and democracy. It was a nation that led the world in innovation, productivity, and technology. And it was the healthiest country in the world. I have talked to many Trump supporters. I have talked with his inner circle. I have talked to the man himself. This is the America they want to restore.

RFK Jr. is doing something very heroic and historic right now.

This is what saving democracy looks like.

[Matt Wallace @MattWallace888]

This speech by RFK Jr is one of the greatest things I have ever witnessed

[The Vigilant Fox 🦊 @VigilantFox]

BREAKING: Emotional RFK Jr. Promises to End the Chronic Disease Epidemic with Trump’s Backing

This is powerful. You won't regret watching this.

“If I'm given the chance to fix the chronic disease crisis and reform our food production, I promise that within two years, we will watch the chronic disease burden lift dramatically. We will make Americans healthy again. Within four years, America will be a healthy country. We will be stronger, more resilient, more optimistic, and happier.

“I won't fail in doing this. Ultimately, the future, however it happens, is in God's hands, in the hands of the American voters, and those of President Trump. If President Trump is elected and honors his word, the vast burden of chronic disease that now demoralizes and bankrupts the country will disappear.

“This is a spiritual journey for me. I reached my decision through deep prayer, through hard-nosed logic, and I asked myself, what choices must I make to maximize my chances to save America's children and restore national health? I felt that if I refused this opportunity, I would not be able to look myself in the mirror, knowing that I could have saved the lives of countless children and reversed this country's chronic disease epidemic.

“I'm 70 years old. I may have a decade to be effective. I can't imagine that President Harris, a President Harris, would allow me, or anyone, to solve these dire problems. After eight years of President Harris, any opportunity for me to fix the problem will be out of my reach forever.

“President Trump has told me that he wants this to be his legacy. I'm choosing to believe that this time, he will follow through. His son, his biggest donors, his closest friends, all support this objective. My joining the Trump campaign will be a difficult sacrifice for my wife and children, but worthwhile if there's even a small chance of saving these kids.

“Ultimately, the only thing that will save our country and our children is if we choose to love our kids more than we hate each other. That's why I launched my campaign—to unify America. My dad and uncle made such an enduring mark on the character of our nation, not so much because of any particular policies they promoted, but because they were able to inspire profound love for our country and to fortify our sense of ourselves as a national community.

“Held together by ideals, they were able to put their love into the intentions and hearts of ordinary Americans and to unify a national populist movement of Americans. Blacks and whites, Hispanics, urban and rural Americans, inspired affection and love and high hopes, and a culture of kindness that continue to radiate among Americans from their memory.

“That's the spirit on which I ran my campaign and that I intend to bring into the campaign of President Trump. Instead of vitriol and polarization, I will appeal to the values that unite us, the goals that we could achieve if only we weren't at each other's throats. The most unifying theme for all Americans is that we all love our children.

“If we all unite around that issue now, we can finally give them the protection, the health, and the future that they deserve. Thank you all very much.”
